That last over boundary from Williamson was gold. So used are we to seeing slog finishers close out T20Is and ODIs that I was thinking it was going to be Mitchell, then Bracewell and then Henry who would take the Kiwis to victory. But it was Williamson who ensured that the job got done.

New ball will make some quick wkts after Lunch.

[vvvslaxman]

He is making full use of his form. This is why these guys are FAB 4s. Kohli at his peak made full use of his form. Root is doing now. So does Smith.
